Those mid-tier releases are nice to have, but I was talking about big, system selling titles. |
If a system gets enough mid-tier games, then they become system sellers themselves. The PS1 only had one "big" franchise, Final Fantasy, and it didn't sell anything like the big franchises of today. Instead the PS1 mostly sold on the strength of having a lot of great mid-tier games. It became the top selling system of all time beating the previous record holder by about 40 million hardware units. That is what having a lot of quality mid-tier games can do.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
